 {v.10-13} These ten were united into two sets of five each, and these again linked together to form one complete covering. No specific mention, apparently, is made of the manner in which the five curtains were united to each other (it has been conjectured that it was by needle-work), but the directions for uniting the two sets are very clear. (The Linen Curtains - Their Dimensions and So Forth by S. Ridout)
 These curtains were united into two sets of five each, making ten in all. Five is the number of human capacity, as the four fingers and thumb upon the hand; the two hands making ten in all. The ten reminds us of the Ten Commandments, the measure of man’s full responsibility. The Ten Commandments were upon two tables, showing responsibility, Godward and manward. The two sets of curtains would suggest this two-fold responsibility met by our Lord. (The Linen Curtains - Their Dimensions and So Forth by S. Ridout)
 There seems to be an evident purpose of the Spirit to draw our attention especially to the union of the two sets of five each....May we not find one reason in the fact that man so easily separates between his responsibilities Godward and manward? In all natural religion this is the case. God is excluded from the realm of daily life; duties to one’s neighbor, the responsibilities of the home and business, are things which we must care for ourselves; neither God’s will nor His help are to be greatly considered, beyond the general claims of honesty, morality and unselfishness. (The Linen Curtains - Their Dimensions and So Forth by S. Ridout)
